Personal Membership Groups

Personal membership groups are organizations primarily composed of employees of MHA-member institutions or others who provide services to the hospital community. PMGs sign affiliation agreements with MHA. In return, MHA helps provide organizational support and educational programming to promote professional growth within the various health professions.

Complete an application form if you are interested in joining a personal membership group. If you have a question about a specific group, contact the designated MHA staff liaison.
